Gaming DS Games on a 3DS

[dragonkid6]

Okay, so random 100 people not expecting an update to make DS games look better notice that after the 2.0 update that most DS games seen to look different. You say you don't see a difference and the only evidence is that a couple hundred people say that they, without looking for difference, noticed a difference.

I said in my own experience that when using a GBA emulator that it has a dozen filter options that change the game's looks and we all know that any new system playing last gen games is simply emulating them.

Going off the information we have what do you think is true?

I 100% guarantee that most of those people didn't 'notice' anything until someone suggested to them that there was a difference. the power of suggestion goes a log way you know. It cause people buy any old crap, it even causes symptoms of diseases without actually contracting the disease, it is the entire bases of hypnotism. You are suggesting that because the DS is emulated, then they MUST have updated the graphics? that doesn't seem like a logical assumption to me.

DSiXL>3DS>DSi>DSLite>DS

For this reason I kept my DSiXL.
Are you saying a big DSi is better than a 3DS?

To play DS games, yes.

In addition to the larger screens and "the more accurate touch screen", colors are more vivid than in the 3DS.
Also, considering the 3DS battery life, it's good to have a spare DS just for DS games.

I don't mind the black borders... I wouldn't get it to only play DS but mainly DS games..Other then SF4 and Ocarina what else is there? I feel like once I play those games to death I would have to wait like 2 years before any good 3ds games come out.

Actually... You could play SSF4 and Ocarina until September ~ November when Kid Icarus, Mario Kart and Super Mario 3DS will be launched.

Ops... sorry, double post...

Throw in my 2 cents here... I've noticed no difference between DS game quality before or after the 2.0 update.

OP, game quality isn't bad but it IS a little blurry for parts.

Updated 2 different friend´s 3ds today. I compared the first updated one against the second and there was no difference. Then I updated the second one and compared against mine and no difference again. I think that what Spinal Cord said is the most logical explanation.
@Spinal Cord- you were right all along! Even in my poll thread people confirm your conclusion.

Huh? Kid Icarus has no confirmed date...Mario Kart and Super Mario 3ds are TBA as well. No way they are coming this year. They will most likely be holiday 2012. This is Nintendo we are talking about.

I will say though thinking about it...Mario Kart, Okamiden, and Mario 64 will all be way better with an anologue stick....

Alot of sources say its coming sometime BEFORE the holidays but then again I think I can recall several times G4TV said the PS4 was coming out next week :/ but anyway im sure were gonna see these by 2011 holiday at the latest.

Thinking about it, Nintendo would be really dumb not to get at least ONE mario game this holiday. Especially since the 3ds has such lackluster sales.
